   --- Steps ---

2. 2

   Soak the chickpeas overnight.

3. 3

   Place in a food processor along with the roughly chopped parsley, coriander, onion and garlic.

4. 4

   Blend until you get a crumbled texture. Add all the seasoning, along with the baking powder and mix by hand.

5. 5

   Shape the falafel balls by hand into the size you prefer (if the mix is too dry and falling apart, add water.

6. 6

   If too mushy, add flour). Place them on a baking sheet, brush with olive oil and bake for 15-20 minutes on 240 degrees (you can broil the last few minutes until they turn brown).

7. 7

   Enjoy with veggies and tahini dip!

   N.B. Canned chickpeas will not work, you have to use dry or else the mix will have the wrong texture.
